Texas’s ban on gender-affirming care for trans youth goes into effect today, after the state’s Supreme Court overruled an earlier decision by a Texas judge who found the ban unconstitutional. The law will not only block transgender youth from accessing new care, it will force those already on transition medications to wean off of them. Rights groups are appealing.

Separately, a federal judge temporarily blocked a Texas law that would restrict drag performances while the court reviews the case.

Meanwhile, Canada has issued a travel advisory for its LGBTQ+ citizens visiting the U.S. due to the recent flurry of discriminatory laws passed by Republicans.
